MUNICH ANNIVERSARY

After beating Red Star Belgrade 2-1 in the European Cup quarter-finals first leg, in 1958, at Old Trafford, Manchester United travelled to Yugoslavia and had the tie wrapped up by half time. Dennis Viollet put United  ahead within 90 seconds and he then had a header disallowed on 14 minutes. Bobby Charlton scored one of his 30 yard screamers to make the score 2-0 on 30 minutes and one minute later, Duncan Edwards caused mayhem in the Red Start area with another goal. Red Star scored three in the second half to draw level but it would not have been enough as they needed four to force aplay off. The "Busby Babes" would get another chance to break Real Madrid's strong hold on the Europen Cup and win a place in European Cup history.

The Babes would indeed be guaranteed their place in history, but in the most tragic way. In the wake of the Superga Disaster, many clubs divided their squads in two and sent parties off in separate aircrafts. United did not! Their return flight from Belgrade stopped to refuel at Munich Airport, where it was snowing, but the pilot tried to take off and aborted two attempts which failed. On the third attempt, there was so much slush on the runway, the plane could not raise enough speed to take off and skidded off the runway at 157mph. careering into a nearby building, into which the impact killed 21 of the 44 passengers including; Geoff Bent, Roger Byrne, Eddie Colman, Mark Jones, David Pegg, Tommy Taylor and Billy Whelan-smoe names not so familiar to people under than "us"! Byrne was the oldest in the group at 28 years. Ducan Edwards survived the crash but died 15 days later. Red Star reponded to the tragedy by asking UEFA for Manchester United to become "Honorary Champions of Europe" but UEFA did not accept this gesture. 

In May, United won the first leg of the Semi-Final against Milan2-1 but lost the return 0-4. Real Madrid went on to win the Trophy.

ARSENE'S GARDENERS

On This Day  4th February 2017
The trouble with a manager getting a touchline ban is usually means that they end up sitting with the plebs...that us us supporters! And that can be an uncomfortable experience as Arsène Wenger found out when sitting with the paying spectators at Stamford Bridge during a four-match touchline ban received at the start of 2017 for abusing a fourth official. The Arsenal manager sat next to an Arsenal fan who was his gardener - but the Frenchman had no idea who he was! “But I do have a big garden..." was Wenger's get-out clause!

Former Arsenal midfielder Henri Lansbury, once tipped for stardom by Arsene Wenger and who had played 8 times for The Gunners, successfully transitioned into a new career as a gardener and entrepreneur after retiring in 2023, during the "Pandemic", aged 32. 

His products have not only hit the shelves at Homebase but also returned him to familiar turf, treating the grounds he once graced as a youth at Arsenal's Hale End academy. He founded "Grass Gains", an organic lawn fertilizer company, and has supplied products to professional football clubs, while also creating specialized, striped turf. Lansbury developed a passion for lawn care during the COVID-19 lockdown. His company, Grass Gains, achieved significant success, with products stocked in Homebase. He has tended to the pitches at Arsenal's Hale End academy, the same facility where he trained as a young player under Wenger.                             

Post-Football Life: After retiring at 32, following a promotion-winning stint with Luton Town, he committed full-time to his turf business. Lansbury has stated his goal is to help local clubs improve their pitches, enjoying the process of creating high-quality, striped surfaces. 

THE GOLDEN VISION

 Alex Young, born this day....3 February 1937 was a legendary Scottish footballer, best known for his time as a center-forward for Everton Football Club between 1960 and 1968, where he earned the nickname "The Golden Vision". He is considered to be one of the greatest players in Everton's history and is often referred to be the "King of Goodison" for his elegant style and high scoring rate. Everton Career: Signed from Heart of Midlothian in November 1960 for £40,000. He made 273 appearances and scored 87 goals for the Toffees. He died on 27 February 2017).

Major Honours: He was a key member of the 1962/63 League Championship-winning side (scoring 22 goals) and the 1966 FA Cup-winning team. Playing Style: Known for his incredible grace, ball control, and ability to glide past defenders. He was described as a "matador" with the ball, frequently tricking defenders and having an almost supernatural talent. Legacy: He was dubbed "The Golden Vision" by Spurs captain Danny Blanchflower. 

The phrase also inspired a famous 1968 BBC documentary about a blind fan’s devotion to him.       Post-Football: After leaving Everton in 1968, he briefly managed Glentoran and played for Stockport County. He later ran an upholstery business in Edinburgh. Young passed away in February 2017 at the age of 80, with tributes noting that his status as a club icon remained undimmed, decades after he left Goodison Park.

James Alexander Poole (born 20 March 1990) is an English footballer.. He is primarily a striker but can also play left-wing and as an attacking midfielder. Since 2015 he has worked for City Football Group as a scout, but has combined this role with appearing for a series of non-league sides at the same time.

Playing career 

Manchester City After joining Manchester City's academy from Macclesfield Town's center of excellence for a small fee, he went on to be part of the Manchester City FA Youth Cup winning side in 2007–08 which beat Chelsea and signed a new one-year contract in March 2010. Having joined Bury on loan on 25 March 2010 until the end of the 2009–10 season, he made his debut on 27 March in a Football League match against Aldershot, going on to make 9 appearances for the club, before being sent-off in the last league match of the season. 

Hartlepool 

On 13 October Poole joined Hartlepool United on a one-month loan deal, which was later extended by a month. Poole made 6 appearances at Hartlepool, scoring his first goal in senior football in the League 1 game against Brighton & Hove Albion. In December 2010, Poole returned to his parent club, Manchester City. On 13 May 2011, Poole made a permanent move to Hartlepool for the 2011/12 season, signing a two-year contract. He stated in the Hartlepool Mail newspaper that he wanted to sign even more when he saw experienced midfielder Nolberto Solano was signing on the same day. He scored a wonder goal on his first permanent game for Hartlepool away to MK Dons in a 2–2 draw. James scored two goals in his fifth league game against Rochdale which saw him score a 20-yard volley in a 3–1 win to give Hartlepool their first win of the season after four consecutive draws. After a few appearances on the bench, Poole returned to the Hartlepool Utyd team and scored 2 away to Chesterfield. His first, a spectacular left-footed strike made the scores 2–2 and his second proved to be Hartlepool's winner, a close range header in the second half. Poole won Hartlepool's Goal of the Season award for 2012–13 for his goal in a 2–1 win against Notts County in February 2013, with Poole saying: "I think I would have to say it's probably the best goal I've ever scored. It might not look the best because it doesn't fly in to the top corner from thirty-five yards or anything, but technically I was really pleased with the goal". This goal also made national headlines after the two Hartlepool goalscorers were named Hartley and Poole. The goal was nominated for the Football League's Goal of the Year at the 2014 Football League Awards^] but was unsuccessful as Franck Moussa won the award. 

Poole signed a new contract with Hartlepool in 2013.^[13] He began the 2013–14 season under new boss Colin Cooper playing in a midfield role but lost his place in a CAM position to Luke Williams. Poole left the club in July 2014 turning down a new contract. At Bury, Poole went on trial with Melbourne City in pre-season but signed for Bury on non-contract terms in August 2014. Poole joined Conference side Dover Athletic on loan in November 2014.

Semi-professional

In 2019, he spent a month on loan at Hyde Utd, making four appearances before returning to Altrincham. After moving to Australia, Poole signed for Preston Lions in 2019.

Off-field career: 

After leaving Bury, Poole began working for City Football Group, owners of previous club Manchester City, in a scouting role. While there he combined his duties with playing for several non-league sides: In June 2019 he moved to Australia to head up the Australian branch of CFG's Scouting and Recruitment department, based at Melbourne City.
